1. Do I really have to write it down? Let’s just say: January 20, 2009. Out with the old; in with the new. GLORY GLORY HALLELUJAH!
2. MAY 16th. MY WEDDING DATE.
3. When I get into the bathtub my kitties go and curl up on the bed, where they wait for me to get out so we can all snuggle together.
4. The song I will dance to at my wedding for my first dance with my husband.
5. I am quite excellent at playing the bass in Rock Band. I may never learn to drum, but I can strum.
6. We got somewhere between 4 and 6 inches of snow on Tuesday!!! This worked out perfectly and allowed me to stay home in order to watch the inauguration. WOOOO HOOO.
7. Lavender. I love lavender. I love lavender detergent, lavender candles, lavender body wash. Even actual lavender, the plant!
8. School. I love being in school so much, I cannot imagine ever not being in a class. My favorite part may be starting the semester with a brand new pearly white notebook. This semester I am taking Third World Feminism and it is going to be wonderful. I love it, and the professor, already.
9. Wine. I may have mentioned this before?
10. Comfy sheets! Nothing is better than comfy, extra soft, 800 thread count sheets!
What can I say? I am overjoyed. Yesterday was the most important day of my life. Barack Obama will not be perfect. He won’t save us all. The world is not suddenly puppies and rainbows today. But he will think. He will listen. He will examine all the sides of an issue before he marches into a predetermined decision. He will include all the voices of our nation, and not just the one or two he agrees with. It is no accident that he spoke to Muslims and nonbelievers, as well as Christians and Jews in his speech. We are so blessed to live here and so blessed to have such a moral, compassionate, intelligent new leader. Hail to the chief, indeed.
